How much will the Wii franchise sell? The series of Wii Sports, Wii Play and Wii Fit is currently the 26th best selling franchise ever. Having sold 26,35 million that is. How far will it go by 2008, 2009 and through the whole lifetime? Will the series beat 70 million and become one of the top 5 best selling franchises ever? Or will it not sell as good, and be unable to beat 50M and break into the top 10?

My predictions are as following:

Wii sports sold about 14,6M last year. Wii Play did 7,8M and Wii fit did 750K. The total numbers are 17.5, 8.7 and 1M.

Wii sports will keep up the pace, and sell 18M through 08. Wii play will also keep selling, since it is a pack in with Wii-mote, and everybody needs a Wiimote. It will not sell as much as last year though and end up at 6M. Wii fit will sell a lot, 10, or at least 9M. So after 08, it will be about 59M sold, being the 7th best selling franchise ever. Beating The Legend of Zelda.

It will drop off later, but for lifetime sales, I predict 120M, being the 3rd best selling franchise ever.


What are the 25 best franchises?
